Dateline: January 25, 2017
********************
The story about von Stiehl's Expedition to mysterious Isla Incognita is on hold.Reason: The camera memory chip can no longer be read by my photo program.The plan is to take it to a store which apparently can retrieve images onto a disk. Hence, photos needed to resume the previous story are in limbo.

Come back soon to experience thrilling adventures on these electronic pages where prodigious danger lurks in the jungle, the deserted village and the enigmatic temple. Here is one more photo for your imagination!

Welcome Aboard!

Lost South Pacific Adventures is a work of fiction set on islands and seas remote in time and distance from us today. It is adapted from history; meaning creative license is being applied. The first creation is the Island of Malabascar. It won't be found on any nautical chart. It exists only here.

Along the way we'll visit several islands and get to know characters as new adventures appear. Each story will advance by briefly captioned photographs of real locations accentuated by sets using historical miniatures.

Some kindly say my stories are reminiscent of an entertainment genre of the past; the Saturday morning movie serial. Today this a called a sequel. One friend, Henry Hyde, says these have the "flavour of bandes desinées like Tintin."

Our first story is, 15,000 Miles From The Past. May I encourage you to imagineer what this means as you vicariously sail its first chapter, The Last Naval Battles?
